(c) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) The stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Capital Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time thereafter on the records of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(g) Other than with respect to any Principal Stockholder that is party to a Support Agreement and that will receive assets having more than $5,000,000 of value in consideration at the Closing as evidenced by the Spreadsheet (it being understood that shares of Parent Common Stock shall be valued at the Deemed Value for such purposes), Parent shall be entitled to (i) take such steps necessary to verify that each Stockholder and, to the extent required

26

under Rule 501, any Beneficial Owner of such Stockholder, that is to receive any Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement is an Accredited Investor and (ii) each such Stockholder shall deliver to Parent or, if requested by Parent, another third party verifying Person (the “ Verifying Person ”) reasonably acceptable to Parent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, no later than twenty-one (21) days prior to the Closing Date, such information as may be reasonably requested by Parent or such Verifying Person to verify that each Stockholder and Beneficial Owner of such Stockholder that is to receive any Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement is an Accredited Investor and specifying the relevant provision of Rule 501 pursuant to which such Accredited Investor status is to be verified. Each Stockholder and Beneficial Owner who will receive Parent Common Stock at this Closing shall provide Parent with contact information, including an email address, no later than twenty-one (21) days prior to the Closing Date. Nothing contained herein shall require Parent to issue shares of Parent Common Stock to any Person that Parent knows is not an Accredited Investor.

(h) The certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued and delivered hereunder shall bear the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THE ISSUER OF THESE SHARES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR OTHER TRANSFER OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION.”

In the event that any such shares of Parent Common Stock cease to be Restricted Shares, Parent shall, upon the written request of the Holder thereof, issue to such Holder a new certificate representing such shares of Parent Common Stock without the legend required by the foregoing.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, during the time that any such shares of Parent Common Stock are Restricted Shares, a holder of such shares shall not transfer (including through a distribution in kind to any limited partners of such holder or otherwise to any Beneficial Owner) such shares of Parent Common Stock without first delivering to Parent a written opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, delivered by a nationally recognized counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent, that such transfer is being effected in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and otherwise complies with any applicable securities Laws of any state or other jurisdiction. Any transferee of a holder of Parent Common Stock acquired hereby shall take such Parent Common Stock subject to the restrictions set forth herein.

Upon the later of the Effective Time and surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions (the “ Required Documentation ”), the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay in exchange therefor at the later of the Effective Time or by the close of business one Business Day after delivery by the holder of the Required Documentation, the Merger Consideration such Certificate is converted into pursuant to the provisions of this Article 3 , and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. For the avoidance of doubt, if the holder of a Certificate provides the Exchange Agent the Required Documentation no later than the close of business on the date one Business Day prior to the Closing, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay in exchange for such Certificate the Merger Consideration such Certificate is converted into pursuant to the provisions of this Article 3 at the Effective Time.

Except with respect to Dissenting Shares, until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.2 , each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration into which the shares of Company Capital Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1(b) . No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.

(k) No Liability . None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Stockholders’ Representative or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Exchange Fund properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect thereof would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, and any holder of such Certificate who has not theretofore complied with this Article 3 with respect thereto shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration in respect thereof (if any).

(l) Investment of Exchange Fund . The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation; provided that (i) no such investment shall relieve Parent or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Article 3 , and following any losses Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of

28

Company Capital Stock in the amount of such losses, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty days or guaranteed by the United States of America and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America.

(ii) If the Stockholders’ Representative does not deliver to Parent a written statement describing any objections the Stockholders’ Representative has to the Parent Adjustment Report (a “ Notice of Disagreement ”) on or before the final day of the Review Period, then the Stockholders’ Representative shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted such Parent Adjustment Report, and such Parent Adjustment Report shall be deemed to be the “ Final Adjustment Report ” for purposes of the payment (if any) contemplated by Section 3.6(c) . If the Stockholders’ Representative delivers to Parent a Notice of Disagreement on or before the final day of the Review Period, then Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative shall attempt to resolve in good faith the matters contained in the Notice of Disagreement within thirty (30) days after Parent’s receipt of the Notice of Disagreement (the “ Resolution Period ”). If Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative reach a resolution with respect to such matters on or before the final day of the Resolution Period, then the Parent Adjustment Report, as modified by such resolution, shall be deemed to be the “ Final Adjustment Report ” for purposes of the payment (if any) contemplated by Section 3.6(c) .

After submission of the Disputed Items to the Accounting Firm, each of Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative may provide the Accounting Firm with a definitive statement in writing of its positions with respect to the Disputed Items (and only the Disputed Items). The Accounting Firm will be provided with reasonable access to the books and records of Parent, and the Acquired Companies, for purposes of making its final determination with respect to the Disputed Items, and Parent and the Acquired Companies shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Accounting Firm in connection therewith. Each of Parent and the Stockholders’ Representative agrees that (1) the Accounting Firm’s determination with respect to each Disputed Item as reflected in the Accounting Firm’s Report shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding, absent fraud or manifest error, (2) the Parent Adjustment Report, as modified by any changes thereto in accordance with the Accounting Firm’s Report, shall be deemed to be the “ Final Adjustment Report ” for purposes of the payment (if any) contemplated by Section 3.6(c) , (3) the procedures set forth in this Section 3.6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the final determination of the Final Adjustment Report (absent fraud or manifest error) and (4) the Accounting Firm’s determination under this Section 3.6(b)(iii) shall be enforceable as an arbitral award, and judgment may be entered thereupon in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event will a Tax Indemnitee be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement for (i) any Taxes of the Acquired Companies for any taxable period or portion thereof commencing after the Closing, or (ii) any Taxes arising from, and attributable to, any discretionary act, omission or transaction that is initiated by Parent or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Acquired Companies outside the ordinary course of business any time after Closing (including on the Closing Date but after Closing), and that are not otherwise contemplated in this Article 7 , or (iii) any employer-paid employment taxes resulting from cashing out Company Options and Stock Appreciation Rights in the Acquired Companies where the payment of employment taxes reduces the amount of such employment taxes that would be payable later in the year of the Closing.

(b) If, during any taxable period beginning prior to the final release of the Escrow Fund, a Tax Indemnitee derives a Tax benefit (including without limitation a refund, credit, or reduction in Tax) that is attributable, directly or indirectly, to an event or circumstance for which it received an indemnity payment under this Section 7.1 , and the Tax Indemnitee determines, in its commercially reasonable judgment, that the effect of the Tax benefit is to reduce or offset, in whole or in part, the cost for which it was indemnified, then the Tax Indemnitee shall rebate to the Payment Parties the amount of the actual economic savings that it reasonably determines to be attributable to that reduction or offset.

(c) Any indemnity payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be made pursuant to, and subject to the conditions and limitations contained in, Article 10 .

For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding sentence, any exemption, deduction, credit or other item that is calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the entire amount of such item allocated to the Straddle Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. In the case of any Tax based upon or measured by capital (including net worth or long-term debt) or intangibles, any amount thereof required to be allocated under this Section 7.2(a) shall be computed by reference to the level of such items on the Closing Date.

(b) The Stockholders’ Representative (for further distribution to the Payment Parties) shall be entitled to be paid any refunds or credits (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) in respect of any Liability for any Tax of the Payment Parties or any of their Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), for any Tax periods or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date (including any Taxes allocated to such period under Section 7.2(a) ) or for which the Indemnifying Parties are otherwise liable under Section 7.1 . The Stockholders’ Representative may request the Acquired Companies pursue a claim for refund for any Tax periods or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date, in which case any such claim for refund shall be treated as a Contest for purposes of Section 7.5 , provided that the cost of contesting such Contest shall be borne by the Stockholders’ Representative.

Parent shall be responsible for preparing and timely filing any Tax Returns required with respect to any such Transfer Taxes.

Section 7.4 Tax Returns .

(a) (i) The Indemnifying Parties shall be responsible for the timely filing (taking into account any extensions received from the relevant tax authorities) of all Tax Returns required by Law to (A) be filed by the Acquired Companies on or prior to the Closing Date or (B) include the Acquired Companies in a consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Return filed by the Indemnifying Parties or any of their Affiliates (other than any Tax Indemnitee) with respect to any taxable period ending prior to or including the Closing Date, (ii) such Tax Returns shall be correct and complete in all material respects and accurately set forth all items to the extent required to be reflected or included in such Tax Returns by applicable Tax Laws and (iii) all Taxes indicated as due and payable on such Tax Returns shall be paid or will be paid by the Indemnifying Parties as and when required by Law. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with those prepared for prior taxable periods unless a different treatment of any item is required by an intervening change in Law, closing agreement or other settlement entered into with a Taxing Authority, or decision of a judicial authority.

(b) The Acquired Companies (or, where relevant, the combined or consolidated group of which the Acquired Companies are members) shall be responsible for the timely filing (taking into account any extensions received from the relevant Tax Authorities) of all Tax Returns required by Law to be filed by the Acquired Companies, or to include the Acquired Companies, after the Closing Date.

(c) The Acquired Companies shall not take positions, make elections or use methods on Tax Returns that deviate substantively from positions taken, elections made or methods used in prior periods in filing such Tax Returns (any such deviation being a “ Position Change ”); provided that the Acquired Companies may make a Position Change, if (i) doing so would not increase the amount of the indemnity (assuming no Position Change) to be paid to any Tax Indemnitee by the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 7.1 , or (ii) the Stockholders’ Representative consents to such Position Change, such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, as determined in accordance with the resolution procedures provided in Section 7.4(d) and Section 7.4(e) .

(d) The Acquired Companies shall submit any Tax Returns that could give rise to a claim for indemnification to the Stockholders’ Representative not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (giving effect to valid extensions) (or, if such due date is within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, or in the case of any

76

amended Tax Return or Tax Return for which the due date has passed, as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date) for review by the Stockholders’ Representative. If the Stockholders’ Representative objects in writing to a change in position that it believes in good faith could give rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 7.1 , then the Stockholders’ Representative shall notify Parent of such disputed items and the basis for its objection within fifteen (15) days of the day of receipt of such Tax Return, and the Stockholders’ Representative and Parent shall act in good faith to resolve the dispute for as long as reasonably possible consistently with filing the Tax Return on time.

(e) If it is not possible to resolve any such dispute prior to the filing date (or, in the case of any amended Tax Return or Tax Return for which the due date has passed, within 30 days of the receipt by the Acquired Companies of the Stockholders’ Representative’s written objection in accordance with Section 7.4(d) ), then the Acquired Companies shall have sole authority to determine the form and content of their Tax Returns. If a claim for indemnification under Section 7.1 is made in respect of any such Tax Return, and the Stockholders’ Representative believes that the liability is attributable to a position that it has disputed in writing, then the Stockholders’ Representative may request that the dispute be presented to the Accounting Firm. If the Accounting Firm determines that (i) the liability for which indemnification is claimed is attributable to the disputed position, and (ii) the Stockholders’ Representative’s refusal to pay the indemnity claim in respect of such position is unreasonable, then the Acquired Companies shall be entitled to indemnification for the amount that the Accounting Firm determines to be attributable to the disputed position. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on both parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction.

(f) The Acquired Companies shall not file (i) any amended Tax Returns or (ii) any Tax Returns in any jurisdiction in which the Acquired Companies have not previously filed a Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Period, without the consent of the Stockholders’ Representative, such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, as determined in accordance with the resolution procedures provided in Section 7.4(d) and Section 7.4(e) .

Section 7.5 Contests .

(a) The Tax Indemnitee shall notify the Stockholders’ Representative in writing promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, of becoming aware of the commencement after the Closing Date of any Contest that could give rise to an indemnification payment under Section 7.1 (the specific issues that could give rise to such indemnification are referred to herein as “ Tax Indemnifiable Matters ”). Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known to the Tax Indemnitee or its Affiliates) with respect to Tax Indemnifiable Matters in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document (to the extent such notice or document relates to Tax Indemnifiable Matters) received from any Governmental Authority in respect thereof.

(b) The Tax Indemnitee shall control all Contests, but to the extent that a Contest involves issues for which the Tax Indemnitee may be entitled to a payment under Section 7.1(a) , the Stockholders’ Representative or its duly appointed representatives shall be allowed to attend all meetings between the Tax Indemnitee and the Governmental Authority in

77

question and shall be provided with copies of all material correspondence and documents, to the extent relating to Tax Indemnifiable Matters. Neither the Tax Indemnitee nor any of its Affiliates may settle or compromise any asserted Tax liability in a Contest, to the extent relating to Tax Indemnifiable Matters, without the consent of the Stockholders’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For the avoidance of doubt, a Tax Indemnitee’s decision not to contest a Contest will be considered to be a settlement of that Contest for purposes of the preceding sentence. For purposes of this Section 7.5(b) , if the Tax Indemnitee and the Stockholders’ Representative cannot come to agreement as to whether consent is being, or will be, unreasonably withheld or delayed within 30 days of the Stockholders’ Representative’s initial refusal to provide consent, such disagreement shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on both parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent or one of its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall have the right to prohibit the Stockholders’ Representative from participating in any Contest as it relates to a specific matter if Parent and Tax Indemnitee(s) have waived their rights to indemnity for such matter.

Section 7.6 Prior Tax Sharing Agreements . This Agreement terminates and supersedes any and all other tax sharing or allocation agreements in effect on the date hereof as between the Payment Parties or any predecessor or Affiliate thereof on the one hand, and the Acquired Companies on the other hand, for all taxes imposed by any federal, state, foreign or local government or Taxing Authority, regardless of the period for which such taxes are imposed, and obligations of or to the Acquired Companies pursuant to any such agreement shall be extinguished as of the Closing Date.

Section 7.7 Cooperation on Tax Matters . After the Closing, Parent and the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and the Stockholders’ Representative on the other hand, will make available to the other, as reasonably requested, and to any Taxing Authority, all information, records or documents relating to the Liability for Taxes or potential Liability of the Acquired Companies for Taxes for all periods prior to or including the Closing Date and will preserve such information, records or documents until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.

Section 7.8 Exclusive Remedy . All matters relating to Taxes will be governed exclusively by this Article 7 and Article 10 following the Closing, except to the extent specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(1) The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether

civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

(2) The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(3) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections (1) and (2) of this Article Eight, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

(4) Any indemnification under Sections (1) and (2) of this Article Eight (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such Sections (1) and (2).

Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

(6) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other sections of this Article Eight shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

(7) The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law.

(8) For purposes of this Article Eight, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting Corporation, any constituent Corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article Eight with respect to the resulting or surviving Corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent Corporation if its separate existence had continued.

ARTICLE TEN

The directors in their discretion may submit any contract or act for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders or at any meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any contract or act that shall be approved or be ratified by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation which is represented in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote thereat (provided that a lawful quorum of stockholders be there represented in person or by proxy) shall be as valid and as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as though it had been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation, whether or not the contract or act would otherwise be open to legal attack because of directors’ interest, or for any other reason.

ARTICLE ELEVEN

In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject , nevertheless , to the provisions of the statutes of Delaware, of this certificate, and to any bylaws from time to time made by the stockholders; provided , however , that no bylaws so made shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such bylaw had not been made.

This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto.

(e) If any restriction or covenant contained in this Section 7 is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such restriction or covenant shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such restriction or covenant would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 7 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained in this this Section 7 ) that would be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

(f) The Securityholder shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties against 74.5 % of all Losses incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) in connection with any Claim, including any Legal Proceeding by (i) a holder of Company Capital Stock alleging fault with respect to the allocation or calculation of Merger Consideration, including the allocation of the Stock Consideration between or among the holders of Company Capital Stock, (ii) any participant in the MIA, any holder of Stock Appreciation Rights or any Inovis Person alleging fault with respect to any payment made or required to be made to such Person in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iii) any Person that contributed or may be required to contribute funds to the Escrow Fund alleging fault with being required to contribute, or the amounts required to be contributed, to, or the distribution of, the

10. Assignment . This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, benefits or obligations set forth herein may be assigned by any of the parties hereto, provided , that Parent may, without prior approval of the other parties hereto (a) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or (b) designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases Parent nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder).

11. Severability . Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12. No Strict Construction . The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement or in any of the agreements contemplated hereby shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Any reference in this Agreement to an “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refers to the corresponding Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement, unless the context indicates otherwise. The headings of Sections are provided for convenience only and are not intended to affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement should be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Any reference to a contract or other document as of a given date means the contract or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time through such date. The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and other similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole and not only to the particular Article, Section or other subdivision in which any such terms may be employed. Reference to any Person will include such Person’s predecessors. The plural will be deemed to include the singular and vice versa. Use of “or” is not intended to be exclusive unless expressly indicated otherwise. A defined term has its defined meaning throughout this Agreement, regardless of whether it appears before or after the place in this Agreement where it is defined, including in any Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement.

13. Captions . The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

11

14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries . Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third Persons specifically including employees or creditors of the Company.

15. Complete Agreement . This Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the documents referred to herein contain the complete agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

16. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile (including e-mail delivery of documents in Adobe PDF format), and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

17. Governing Law . This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all rights of the parties hereto (whether sounding in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise), shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

18. Consent to Jurisdiction . Each party hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that all Claims in respect of any such Legal Proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court, (iii) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iv) agrees not to bring any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise) in any other court and (v) agrees that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

19. Specific Performance; Injunctive Relief . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy expressly conferred hereby, and the exercise by a party of any one such remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other such remedy. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and that, although monetary damages may be available for such a breach, monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement by such party, any other party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches hereof and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions

12

hereof. A party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection therewith, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. In the event that any Legal Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, each party agrees that it shall not allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy available at law.

20. Waiver of Jury Trial . EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 20, (C) UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER AND (D) MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY.

22. Guarantee . Guarantors, intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to Parent their pro rata portion (based upon their respective ownership of Securityholder amongst each Guarantor) any Losses resulting from the failure of the Securityholder to promptly perform its obligations hereunder. Guarantors further agree that their respective obligations hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (A) any change in the existence, structure or ownership or insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Securityholder or any other Person interested in the transactions contemplated hereby or the dissolution, liquidation, merger or winding up of any such entity, (B) the adequacy of any other means Parent may have of obtaining performance or payment for the guaranteed obligations, (C) the discharge of Guarantors as a matter of law or equity (other than as a result of the payment of the guaranteed obligations in accordance with the terms hereof), (D) any change in the time, place or manner of any payment of any of the underlying obligations guaranteed in this Section 22 or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment to or modification or any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement made in accordance with the terms hereof or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the underlying obligations guaranteed in this Section 22 , (E) the addition, substitution or release of any Person interested in the transaction contemplated hereby and (F) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which Guarantors may have any time against the Securityholder, whether in connection with the underlying obligations guaranteed in this Section 22 or otherwise.

Each Securityholder shall also be entitled to distribute Confidential Information to any current or potential partner or equity holder of such Securityholder (or any of its affiliated funds) to the extent such disclosure is limited to customary disclosures made by private equity funds to their equity holders in respect of investments made thereby, including in connection with the disposition thereof. The restrictions set forth in this Section 7 shall lapse on the second anniversary of the Closing Date with respect to all Confidential Information.

(c) In the event that any Covered Entity is requested or required pursuant to any written or oral question or request for information or documents by law, regulation, supervisory authority or other applicable judicial or governmental order in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigation demand, or similar process to disclose any Confidential Information the Securityholder will notify Parent promptly of the request or requirement (and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after receipt) so that Parent may seek (at Parent’s sole cost and expense) a protective Order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Securityholder’s compliance with the provisions of Section 7(b) and this Section 7(c) with respect to such Confidential Information.

(e) If any restriction or covenant contained in this Section 7 is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such restriction or covenant shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such restriction or covenant would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 7 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained in this this Section 7 ) that would be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

(f) The Securityholders collectively shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties against 12.7 % of all Losses incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) in connection with any Claim, including any Legal Proceeding by (i) a holder of Company Capital Stock alleging fault with respect to the allocation or calculation of Merger Consideration, including the allocation of the Stock Consideration between or among the holders of Company Capital Stock, (ii) any participant in the MIA, any holder of Stock Appreciation Rights or any Inovis Person alleging fault with respect to any payment made or required to be made to such Person in

11. Severability . Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12. No Strict Construction . The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement or in any of the agreements contemplated hereby shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Any reference in this Agreement to an “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refers to the corresponding Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement, unless the context indicates otherwise. The headings of Sections are provided for convenience only and are not intended to affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement should be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Any reference to a contract or other document as of a given date means the contract or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time through such date. The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and other similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole and not only to the particular Article, Section or other subdivision in which any such terms may be employed. Reference to any Person will include such Person’s predecessors. The plural will be deemed to include the singular and vice versa. Use of “or” is not intended to be exclusive unless expressly indicated otherwise. A defined term has its defined meaning throughout this Agreement, regardless of whether it appears before or after the place in this Agreement where it is defined, including in any Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement.

13. Captions . The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries . Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties and their

11

respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third Persons specifically including employees or creditors of the Company.

15. Complete Agreement . This Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the documents referred to herein contain the complete agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

16. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile (including e-mail delivery of documents in Adobe PDF format), and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

17. Governing Law . This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all rights of the parties hereto (whether sounding in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise), shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

18. Consent to Jurisdiction . Each party hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that all Claims in respect of any such Legal Proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court, (iii) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iv) agrees not to bring any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise) in any other court and (v) agrees that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

19. Specific Performance; Injunctive Relief . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy expressly conferred hereby, and the exercise by a party of any one such remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other such remedy. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and that, although monetary damages may be available for such a breach, monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement by such party, any other party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches hereof and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof. A party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection therewith, and each party hereby irrevocably

12

waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. In the event that any Legal Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, each party agrees that it shall not allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy available at law.

20. Waiver of Jury Trial . EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 20, (C) UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER AND (D) MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY.

21. Effectiveness . This Agreement and all of the obligations set forth herein shall be null and void and of no force or effect automatically, without any act of any party, upon the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Each Securityholder shall take all necessary action in its power to amend the Certificate of Designation as set forth in Exhibit C , to provide that the Stock Consideration shall be allocated among the holders of Company Capital Stock and valued for purposes of the Certificate of Designation in the same manner as such consideration is valued for purposes of the Merger Agreement.

2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Securityholders . Each Securityholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Parent as follows:

(a) Such Securityholder is the sole record and Beneficial Owner of the shares of the Company Capital Stock set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively, and together with any Company Capital Stock or other voting securities of the Company hereafter issued to or otherwise acquired or Beneficially Owned or owned of record by such Securityholder, including in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company affecting the Company Capital Stock, the “ Subject Shares ”).

Such Securityholder acknowledges that this Agreement provides for certain actions with respect to the Subject Shares in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “ Transactions ”).

(b) Each Securityholder agrees not to, and shall cause its present and future Representatives and controlled Affiliates, to the extent such Representatives and controlled Affiliates have been provided with Confidential Information with respect to the Company (collectively, the “ Covered Entities ”) (such controlled Affiliates not to be deemed to have Confidential Information solely as a result of the Cerberus Designated Directors (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement dated June 2, 2010 among GXS Group Inc., Global Acquisition LLC, CCG Investment Fund, L.P., CCG Associates – QP, LLC, CCG Investment Fund – AI, LP, CCG AV, LLC – Series A, CCG AV, LLC – Series CCG CI, LLC, Cerberus Institutional Partners (Americas), L.P., and Cerberus Institutional Partners, L.P.)

Each Securityholder shall also be entitled to distribute Confidential Information to any current or potential partner or equity holder of such Securityholder (or any of its affiliated funds) to the extent such disclosure is limited to customary disclosures made by private equity funds to their equity holders in respect of investments made thereby, including in connection with the disposition thereof. The restrictions set forth in this Section 7 shall lapse on the second anniversary of the Closing Date with respect to all Confidential Information.

(c) In the event that any Covered Entity is requested or required pursuant to any written or oral question or request for information or documents by law, regulation, supervisory authority or other applicable judicial or governmental order in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigation demand, or similar process to disclose any Confidential Information the Securityholder will notify Parent promptly of the request or requirement (and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after receipt) so that Parent may seek (at Parent’s sole cost and expense) a protective Order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Securityholder’s compliance with the provisions of Section 7(b) and this Section 7(c) with respect to such Confidential Information. If, failing the entry of a protective Order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Covered Entity determines in good faith, after consultation with counsel, that such Covered Entity is compelled to disclose the Confidential Information to any Governmental Authority, the Covered Entity may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information to the Governmental Authority as is legally required without

7

liability hereunder; provided , however , that each Securityholder shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, at Parent’s sole cost and expense, an Order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Parent shall designate and (ii) promptly, to the extent not legally prohibited, inform Parent and the Company of such Securityholder’s determination to furnish such information and the scope and contents of such disclosure.

(d) Each Securityholder acknowledges that Parent and Merger Sub are investing substantial sums of money to consummate the Merger and to maintain and develop the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, that Parent and Merger Sub would not be doing so but for the covenants contained in this Section 7 , and that such covenants are necessary in accordance with their terms to protect and maintain the proprietary interests and other legitimate business interests of Parent, Merger Sub and the Acquired Companies. Each Securityholder further acknowledges that it will directly benefit from the Merger as a recipient of the consideration payable by Parent pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

(e) If any restriction or covenant contained in this Section 7 is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such restriction or covenant shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such restriction or covenant would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 7 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained in this this Section 7 ) that would be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

(f) The Securityholders collectively shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties against 12.7 % of all Losses incurred or sustained by the Indemnified Parties (or any of them) in connection with any Claim, including any Legal Proceeding by (i) a holder of Company Capital Stock alleging fault with respect to the allocation or calculation of Merger Consideration, including the allocation of the Stock Consideration between or among the holders of Company Capital Stock, (ii) any participant in the MIA, any holder of Stock Appreciation Rights or any Inovis Person alleging fault with respect to any payment made or required to be made to such Person in

No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement will be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement.

10. Assignment . This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, benefits or obligations set forth herein may be assigned by any of the parties hereto, provided , that Parent may, without prior approval of the other parties hereto (a) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more

10

of its Affiliates or (b) designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases Parent nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder).

11. Severability . Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12. No Strict Construction . The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement or in any of the agreements contemplated hereby shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Any reference in this Agreement to an “Article,” “Section,” “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refers to the corresponding Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement, unless the context indicates otherwise. The headings of Sections are provided for convenience only and are not intended to affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement should be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Any reference to a contract or other document as of a given date means the contract or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time through such date. The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and other similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole and not only to the particular Article, Section or other subdivision in which any such terms may be employed. Reference to any Person will include such Person’s predecessors. The plural will be deemed to include the singular and vice versa. Use of “or” is not intended to be exclusive unless expressly indicated otherwise. A defined term has its defined meaning throughout this Agreement, regardless of whether it appears before or after the place in this Agreement where it is defined, including in any Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of or to this Agreement.

13. Captions . The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

14. No Third-Party Beneficiaries . Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third Persons specifically including employees or creditors of the Company.

15. Complete Agreement . This Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the documents referred to herein contain the complete agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

11

16. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile (including e-mail delivery of documents in Adobe PDF format), and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

17. Governing Law . This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all rights of the parties hereto (whether sounding in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise), shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

18. Consent to Jurisdiction . Each party hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that all Claims in respect of any such Legal Proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court, (iii) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iv) agrees not to bring any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise) in any other court and (v) agrees that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

19. Specific Performance; Injunctive Relief . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy expressly conferred hereby, and the exercise by a party of any one such remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other such remedy. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and that, although monetary damages may be available for such a breach, monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement by such party, any other party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches hereof and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof. A party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof shall not be required to provide, furnish or post any bond or other security in connection therewith, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the provision, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. In the event that any Legal Proceeding should be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, each party agrees that it shall not allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy available at law.

20. Waiver of Jury Trial . EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS

12

AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 20, (C) UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER AND (D) MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY.

21. Effectiveness . This Agreement and all of the obligations set forth herein shall be null and void and of no force or effect automatically, without any act of any party, upon the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms prior to the Effective Time.
